Ambiguity energizes you. - Outcome orientation: You care about materially reducing risk while enabling useful AI adoption. You understand that security only works if it is practical enough to be used. - Preferred Qualifications - Experience with AI development tools like Claude Code, AWS Bedrock, or similar enterprise AI platforms. - Experience with MCP, skills, API security, gateway technologies, or tool-use architectures for AI agents. - Familiarity with multi-agent workflow design, workflow security patterns, and human-in-the-loop orchestration controls. - Experience with SCA / SAST / DAST, secrets management, SIEM / telemetry pipelines, and secure software delivery controls. - Familiarity with enterprise systems such as Salesforce, NetSuite, Workday, Jira, Confluence, Slack, Google Drive, and Glean, especially where AI workflows introduce differentiated risk. - Experience operating in a high-growth, remote-first B2B SaaS environment. - Comfort partnering closely with Security, IT, GTM Ops, Finance, People, Legal, and Support stakeholders. - Good jokes, or maybe better, bad jokes. - A love for goats.
